Comparative Anatomy of Eating- Were We Meant to Be Vegetarian?

August 20, 2004

Dear Kathy...

Thank you for your thoughts... I knew this posting would spark some interest!

Call me crazy, but it has been a little quiet lately.

I am not sold one way or another... Having tried the lifestyle, I noticed that

I did feel better, but I was not vegan- I did take in milk, cheese, eggs, etc.

Despite feeling better on it, those cravings for meat do tend to take over (is

that the body expressing a need, or more of a symptomology?)... And afterwards,

I do feel worse for having eatten meat... So now I can not call myself

vegetarian. Is that a good thing, I am not sure and I do wrestle with it...

I was hoping this would lead to a discussion of many view points. Would others

here care to share their thoughts, experiences?

For those who did not do well (or who are doing well) on a veggie diet, which

foods did you tend to eat more of? For example, a vegetarian who mainly eats

quesadillas is going to feel different than a live/raw food vegetarian who

takens in lots of nutritious foods... At least, that is what I am thinking...

More thoughts anyone?

Be Well,

Misty L. Trepke

Simply speaking from my own experience, I have at this

point run into two people who swore by vegetarian

diets for many years (17-18) and who now suffer

because of that dedication. Both tell me they never

would have listened to anyone while they were sold on

vegetarianism, but now wish they had not been.
